- Do not board while swimming.
- If your pool does not have a filter included, then you must firmly close all openings in the pool.
- If there is a filter, read the instructions before assembling it. Connect the hoses to the outlet and water supply. Install the machine itself in a dry, well-ventilated place. The filter must not be covered.
- Fill the pool a few inches. Straighten the folds of the bottom. Make sure the water level is not sloping. Fill the pool completely.
Installing an inflatable hot tub
It is possible to install an inflatable pool in the country . Such a pool can be used in summer and especially in winter period. It quickly inflates with a pump and can be installed both outdoors and indoors. To prevent malfunctions and electric shock, it is better to entrust the assembly of the SPA system to a specialist. But if this is not possible, then you must follow the instructions.
- The surface must be level and free of debris. A carpet is laid on it.
- Lay out the material carefully.
- Inflate the pool, but so that there is still room for expanded warm air.
- Connect the control box to the pool. The unit must be grounded.
- Install the filter to the internal outlet grille.
- Before filling, put on plugs on all open unnecessary holes.
- Draw some water, make sure there is no slope and fill completely. The water must be warm. This will help save energy when heating.
- Turn on the heater on the block. The water is heated every hour by 1.5 degrees.
IMPORTANT!Remember:
- The pool cannot be installed on the second floor if the first floor is residential. The room must be well ventilated.
- The pool should not be exposed to long-term exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
- Can't be preserved.
- The air temperature in the street and in the room should not fall below -4 degrees, and in the water +4. With temperature changes below these indicators, it is impossible to operate the pool. A special material is laid on the floor, which will prevent heat transfer from the pool. The floor covering in the room must be moisture resistant.
- Do not heat the water in the pool above 40 degrees.
- The pond must only operate when the lid of the pool is open. Otherwise, the warm fumes will disable the pool's spa system.
Inflatable Pool Care

Inflating air mattress with built-in pump. We will need the mattress itself, an electric pump and the nearest outlet.
We bring the product into a heated room with an air temperature of at least 15 degrees. The mattress does not tolerate cold and close proximity to heat sources.
We lay the mattress on a flat surface, there should be no sharp objects on it so as not to pierce the product. Protect the bottom of the mattress strong foil or tarpaulin.
The product must not be exposed to direct sunlight. If an increase in ambient temperature is expected, the air should be released slightly. Do not pump the product to avoid damaging it. We make sure that the mattress does not wrinkle and does not bend.
Inflating is carried out until the mattress becomes embossed. So its seams will not be damaged, and when falling asleep and lying on it, the owner of the mattress will experience maximum comfort.
From time to time, the air pressure is checked, if several people are sleeping or lying on it, then perhaps the mattress should be “lowered” a little. To deflate it, simply open the valve.
How to inflate an air mattress without using a pump
The mattress does not always include a built-in pump. Alternative inflation methods can be used, such as a foot or hand pump. Do not pump the mattress with a compressor from a car or other devices with high pressure. Do not inflate the product more than 85% volume.
If there is no pump, then you can inflate the mattress with a hairdryer, vacuum cleaner and even a bag
Methods and improvised means
We use a vacuum cleaner
We take a vacuum cleaner, connect the thin nozzle of the device to the outlet and connect it to the mattress hole. We turn on the device and wait until the mattress is inflated to the desired stiffness.
Inflating the mattress with a hair dryer
This is done quite simply. We turn on the hair dryer in the outlet, turn on the " cold air and start downloading. This method is longer than inflating with a built-in or conventional pump, but also effective. The main thing is not to inflate the product with hot air, which can damage the product.
Inflating the mattress with a large trash bag
This method of inflating is very convenient in nature, in the country or in cases where you accidentally forgot the usual nozzle at home.
We take a dense bag for garbage with a large volume. It must not be damaged. We open the inlet valve on our mattress, fill the bag with air, adjust both necks in diameter. We lie down with the body on the bag, distilling the air from the bag into the mattress. We continue such manipulations until the mattress is completely inflated.
How not to do?
What if there was nothing at hand? You could use your lung power to inflate the mattress with your mouth. Such manipulations are easier for a man to perform, but if there are a couple of strong guys nearby, then together it will take 15–20 minutes. It is better to abandon this method and save your lungs.
If there is a car nearby, you can use the exhaust pipe to inflate the product. With this method, it is easy to inflate not only the mattress, but also the children's pool and inflatable boat For fishing. It is enough to build an adapter and start inflating. The disadvantages of this method are that exhaust gases and carcinogens destroy the product from the inside and seep to the surface, causing harm to health.
There is an idea that a rich country house must certainly have such an attribute as a swimming pool. Agree, it's nice to take a hot day water treatment without wasting time traveling to the nearest body of water. However, technology allows literally everyone to get their own pool and not even be tied to the area.
The output was inflatable rubber products. True, their popularity is hampered by numerous myths about strength and conditions of use. No one even remembers that such ideas appeared either long ago or on the basis of someone else's experience. Let's talk about inflatable pools and those misconceptions that you definitely shouldn't believe.
Inflatable pools are designed for children. It seems that the volumes of such products do not allow adults to fully splash around there. Yes, and from childhood we are familiar with something similar, which today seems frivolous for adults. That's just the main manufacturers produce models not only for kids, but also for adults. Family pools are an excellent compromise, where parents with children can relax. And for those who are confused by the size of these products, there are large-sized models and even a jacuzzi.
These pools are small. First of all, it is worth deciding on the purposes of using this pool. It goes without saying that diving is not provided here. If a pool is needed for preschoolers to play, then its height usually does not exceed 50-60 centimeters. In family options, the walls rise by 70 centimeters. If the pool is large and intended for swimming, its walls can rise to a height of 1.3 meters. And the highest frame products generally have a height of up to one and a half meters.
And such a pool will be cramped. Not everyone knows that modern large-sized round pools can reach a diameter of 7.5 meters. There are oval and rectangular products with dimensions of 8 by 4 meters. The whole company will feel comfortable in such giants, and there is definitely a place to swim here.
The inflatable pool can be inflated with a car pump. You can do it, but it's better to choose another path. In the pump, the pressure may not correspond to the maximum allowable in the pool. As a result, an attempt to speed up inflation and test the product for strength may result in a rupture of the walls. Each model should be inflated with the pump that comes with the kit. If you use a third-party product, then you need to consider permissible load for each model.
The inflatable pool is subject to frequent deformations. There are complaints that the sides of the inflatable pool bend. However, if the product is installed on a flat surface, where nothing will interfere with the bottom, there will be no problem. And large inflatable pools keep their shape with the help of an inflatable ring. When water enters the product, the ring floats, and when a certain level is reached, the walls become even.
In the inflatable pool, you can independently adjust the water level. This approach is applicable to models with inflatable walls. Their filling can be carried out taking into account the safety of the kids. But in models with high sides and a pop-up ring, a lack of water will lead to the fact that the ring will not float and the walls will turn out to be curved. So in this case the liquid level is already predetermined.
The inflatable pool deflates quickly. The phrase "inflatable pool" itself is associated with a fully inflatable structure with soft walls. However, only children's and family models look like this. And here it is difficult to say how often they will have to be pumped up - this is purely individual. If you constantly lean on the sides, then after a couple of hours the product will need pumping.
The inflatable pool is fragile. Each model is calculated taking into account the mass of water and its pressure on the walls. The largest models with a height of more than a meter are produced on the basis of reinforced PVC, special vinyl with two- and three-layer walls, as well as Kevlar. Thus, products usually withstand the parameters declared by the manufacturer. The main threat to pools is not the volume of water, but sharp objects and animal claws.
It is difficult to drain water from such pools. In the simplest models, it is enough just to pull out the plug, but in large-sized ones, hoses are already used for this purpose. The width of their section will determine the speed of the drain. For example, in a pool with a volume of 5 cubic meters, the process can stretch from several hours to a whole day.
Water from the pool can be watered beds. This statement is true only for small pools, in which the water is generally clean due to the constant change. And in large pools filters and disinfecting chemicals are responsible for cleaning. Algae are prevented from appearing by algicides. Needless to say, all this will be poisonous for plants?
From long storage, the walls of the pool will stick together and become brittle. The season is over and we need to collect the pool. In order for it to look like a worker again in a few months, its prevention is necessary. After draining the water, the pool should be thoroughly rinsed with non-abrasive mild detergents and then dried. If you sprinkle the walls with starch or talc, then after wintering it will be much easier to unfold this product.
Thank you for purchasing the Intex Easy Set Pool. Please take some time to read this pool installation manual. This information will help you to prolong the life of the pool and will allow you to secure any activities related to the inflatable pool. Before installation, view the video CD that comes with the pool. A minimum of two people are required to install the pool. Large quantity people will help install your inflatable pool in a shorter time.
Before proceeding with the assembly, carefully read the components of the inflatable pool.
Option A: EASY-SET pools 457 cm and smaller.
Option B: pools EASY-SET 549 cm and large sizes.
Necessary information for the preparation of the site for the pool.
Before starting the installation of the pool, check the condition of the land where it is planned to be placed:
- The surface of the ground for the installation of the pool must be flat, without slope, bulges and depressions.
- The ground must be dense and solid in order to support the weight of the pool filled with water.
- Do not install the pool on inclined surfaces or on the platform.
- Do not install the pool on clay, sandy, soft or loose ground.
Make sure that the surface of the ground under the pool is clear of stones, sticks and sharp objects, lay the pool on a flat surface, positioning the drain hole towards the drain. Remove the drain valve from the hose.
Attention: do not drag the pool over the ground, otherwise the pool lining may break. Lay the pool material on the ground, spreading its walls as carefully as possible.
Filling the inflatable ring with air.
Lay out the top inflatable ring of the pool so that it is on the surface and not tangled in the folds of the pool walls. Trying to keep the ring in the center of the pool, inflate it with air using the pump.
Caution: To avoid rupture of the inflatable ring, do not use compressed air pumps such as air compressors. Do not over inflate. Use an Intex pump to inflate (pump not included).
Ambient air temperature and water temperature affect the level of air pressure inside the inflatable ring. the best way maintaining the desired air pressure inside the inflatable ring is the incomplete filling of the inflatable ring with air during inflation. With daytime warmth, the air pressure inside the ring will increase, filling the space left.
Filling the inflatable pool with water.
Option A: EASY-SET pools 457 cm and smaller.
For pools with a hole for connecting a hose (certain models and sizes). If the pool model you purchased does not include a filter pump, use two of the three plugs provided - plug the black filter holes from the inside of the pool so as not to allow water to spill out while filling the pool with water.
Option B: EASY-SET pools 549 cm and larger.
If the pool model you purchased does not include a filter pump, screw the hose caps onto the hose holes before filling the pool. If your pool comes with a filter pump, please review the Krystal Clear filter pump instructions first, then proceed with assembly.
Before filling the pool with water, make sure that the plug inside the pool at the drain hole is tightly closed and the cap outside the drain hole is tightly screwed on. Fill the pool with water no more than 3 cm and see if there is any visible difference in the level of water height from different parties pool.
Attention: If the water level on one side is higher than on the other, then the pool is not located on a flat surface. Installing the pool on an uneven surface will cause the pool to tilt and cause water to leak when the pool is filled with water. If the pool is not level, drain the water, level the surface and fill the pool again.
Start straightening out the creases in the bottom of the pool by pulling the fabric from the junction of the walls and the bottom of the pool outward, and straightening the fabric inside the pool. If creases and wrinkles in the bottom of the pool are caused by wrinkled padding under the pool, stretch the padding on opposite sides with the help of another person.
How to properly dry and store your pool.
- Check with local regulations regarding the disposal of used water.
- Check if the drain plug is connected correctly (on inside basin).
- Remove the cap from the drain valve outside pool.
- Attach the end of the garden hose to the adapter (supplied).
- Take the opposite end of the hose to a place where you can safely drain the water.
- Connect the adapter to the drain valve. Note: Attaching the adapter will open the drain plug on the inside of the pool, causing the water to drain immediately.
- After the water has been drained, disconnect the hose and adapter.
- Insert the drain plug back into the drain valve on the inside of the pool.
- Put the cover back on the drain valve on the outside of the pool.
- Completely deflate the inflatable ring and remove all plugs.
- Before rolling up the pool, make sure that the pool itself and all its components are absolutely dry, for this purpose leave the pool in the sun for an hour before rolling up.
- Give the pool a square shape. Start rolling from one side, wrap 1/6 of the pool material. Then repeat the same manipulations on the opposite side, folding the pool material several times.
- After you have folded the two opposite sides in this way, put one folded part on top of the other, as if you were closing a book, do it again.
- Store the material of the pool and the parts supplied with it in a dry and cool place.
- For storage, you can use the box from under the pool.
Pool maintenance and chemicals used.
Pool maintenance and chemicals used are a factor in determining appearance and lifespan of the pool, as well as providing clean and healthy water. Certain water analysis procedures are required. To perform this kind of procedure, contact a specialist. Strictly follow the written instructions of the chemical manufacturers. drugs.
- Make sure that undissolved parts of chlorine do not get on the pool material. Granular or chlorine in the form of tablets is pre-dissolved in a bucket of water. The same applies to liquid chlorine.
- Never mix chemicals. preparations, if necessary, add one chemical some time after the other and mix thoroughly in the pool water.
- The INTEX Pool Net and Vacuum Cleaner helps keep the pool water clean. To purchase these types of products, please contact your local dealers.
